PC turn on by itself

Hi, I've just installed win xp home on my D drive and my old OS win98 is in my C drive.

I'm facing with a new problem, when I shutdown my pc it will automatically switch on in few minutes time. I have to switch off the power supply inorder to stop it from turning it on by itself.

What probably have gone wrong here???? Advise pls.....

Do you have a network card in there and is Wake On LAN enabled? If so disable it from BIOS or physically by disconnecting the WOL cable from the motherboard.
